OK Saturday
Gone to snooze, let the world ooze.
Rest finds home, forgot my comb.
Just between you and me, its not vain.
Stay away rain.

Stay away rain.
Stay happy, sell sad to the light company…
You are the best.

El Niño is a weather phenomenon that occurs every few years in the tropical Pacific Ocean. It refers to the warming of the ocean surface, which leads to changes in atmospheric circulation and weather patterns worldwide. During El Niño events, we often see increased rainfall in some parts of the world and drought in others. This phenomenon can have significant impacts on global weather patterns, influencing temperature, precipitation, and storm activity. It is an essential component of the complex climate system, and monitoring El Niño is crucial for understanding and predicting weather patterns on a regional and global scale. Source IN generated Ai.
Weather systems have been affected by the El Nino/La Nina effects for perhaps thousands of years in the sense of humanity living at its consequences.
Flooding occurred in British Columbia that severely damaged infrastructure, crops, cattle, chickens, and caused a long-term evacuation of numbers of people something not used to by the people British Columbia.
We have seen the effects of barriers coming from the windward side, moist air from the Pacific Ocean and transferred into the clouds dumping huge amounts of rain in very short order just before the lee side of a barrier.
Temperature differences are sometimes mitigated by the drag effect of the currents that were created by El Nino as they continue colder water comes up from below surface to close to surface after the effect of the warm water going into the clouds is accomplished.
In particular British Columbia then can have some fairly good size pools of cold water in the Pacific this affecting our shores. Yes the increase in temperature globally including the amount of warm surface water coming out of the tropics is powerful and it doesn’t take rocket science, but more and better observation, to mitigate the effects of warm/cold water as it moves about.
Good luck and thank you Noah and:

Rome falls because after hundreds of years of poor weather and the lack of adaptation out of the slave cultures.
After the fall of Rome because of climate,things that happened that were evil were attributed to sin, including sexual sin. This was a blight on human history and still can play on conscience today.
Missionary actions of individual saints were made part of the common culture of scarcity and displacement of the general population.


There is a heat warning for the BC Central interior from environment Canada drawing our attention to the fact that the forecast for today July 25th 2022 is for temperatures to be up to 40 degrees Celsius…
We wish you a reasonable return to a sense of well being based on some present reality. PP

The most expensive year was 1986, 700 billion dollars USD for the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.
The number of natural disasters globally was 416 in 2020. The range for the last 20 years go’s from 320 (2001) as a low to 430 (2006) as a high.
The Nobel peace prize in Literature goes Alex Solzhenitsyn.
Arctic oscilation will drive swings in temperature regardless of El Nino or La Nina.
AO to you and its predictability is limited to a weeks.
Flooding this last year lends to drought relief in some areas combined with AO.
Calculations based on the Canadian Farmers’ Almanac’s time-tested formula suggest that the winter of 2018-2019 will be a “teeth-chattering” cold one, with below-normal temperatures forecast for much of the country.

Twelve hours of light 12 hours dark, dark starts to win after September 22:
The knowledge that summer is gone – and winter is coming – is everywhere now, on the northern half of Earth’s globe.
If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, you can easily notice the later dawns and earlier sunsets.
Also notice the arc of the sun across the sky each day. You’ll find it’s shifting toward the south. Birds and butterflies are migrating southward, too, along with the path of the sun.
The shorter days are bringing cooler weather. A chill is in the air. In New York City and other fashionable places, people have stopped wearing white. Creatures of the wild are putting on their winter coats. source: Earth Sky News
